“…In terms of recycling from the viewpoint of chemistry (e.g., glycolysis, hydrogenation, aminolysis, hydrolysis, pyrolysis, and gasi cation), the components of contaminated PPEs should be meticulously managed and destructed through quali ed waste accumulators, properly bagged, or reused to stop environmental pollution (Jain et al, 2022;Samarjeet et al, 2021). In terms of physical processes, for the decontamination of face coverings, PPE reuse can be achieved using a washing machine or spin dryer at 60°C for 60 min, through supercritical CO 2 sterilization, or other effective disinfection methods (Rowan and Laffey, 2021; Santos-Rosales et al, 2022; Tan et al, 2022).…”
